Matthias ... (maetthu)

Something in between strange, bizarre, dreamy, imaginative and disturbing. I liked the visual style and the little girl is cute, still it's difficult to understand and it's not easy to watch - escaping from a bad environment through dreams and fantasy looks cute and charming on the surface, but deep down it's sad and painful... the movie catches this quite well, it's just a little bit too weird and artistic to make it great

has some lengths, but all in all it's a great sci-fi movie.

This movie touched me. It's intense, powerful, sensitive and deeply tragic. The acting of Emily Watson is just awesome.

There were not that many movies which touched me in the same way as Persepolis did. It's so unique, charming, personal, tragic but still with a good amount of humor and irony - and the style of the drawings are exceptional. In a time where more and more animated movies are made with computer - such hand-drawn pieces are like a treasure!
